Tragic Incident in Sacramento County: Father Arrested for Fatal Attack on One-Year-Old Son
A horrific crime occurred early Saturday morning in North Sacramento County, leaving a community in shock. At approximately 4:15 a.m., Sacramento County Sheriff’s North Patrol Deputies responded to a family disturbance call on the 7500 block of Versailles Way.
Upon arrival, deputies met a female outside the residence who reported that her husband, 28-year-old Andrey Demskiy, had assaulted her and her mother. The woman was transported to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
Deputies attempted to contact Demskiy, but he refused to surrender peacefully. Concerned for the safety of a one-year-old child inside the residence, deputies forcibly entered the home. Demskiy resisted arrest but was eventually taken into custody.
Tragically, deputies discovered the lifeless body of the one-year-old child in the bedroom, who had suffered severe injuries, including decapitation. An investigation revealed that Demskiy used a knife to fatally attack his son.
The incident originated from a domestic violence dispute involving Demskiy, his wife, and his mother-in-law. Both women had left the residence and awaited deputies’ arrival when the crime occurred.
Demskiy was booked into the Sacramento County Main Jail, ineligible for bail, and is scheduled to appear in court on December 24. The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate this tragic incident and urges anyone with additional information to come forward
